PART 29 – THE PLAN OF THE CROWN PRINCE_2
-Wait for me a moment, I'll be right there. – She answered.
She finished her work and fixed her clothes a little bit. Then she came into her room to meet him.
-What's that? – She pointed at the tray on the table.
-It's a gift for you. Just open it.
-This is... this is... - She opened the box on the tray and surprised.
-Do you like it? – He smiled.
-Is this a couple with your suit the day we went to the medicine store?
-You still remember it? Yup, you're right, they are a couple. I think it's nice and suitable for you too, so I ordered one for you and one for me.
-But how did you know my size?
-I just need to ask Ah Jiang and she gave me your info.
-You two... I know that she is a faithful maid of you. I shouldn't believe her much.
-Well, don't be suspicious like that, I just want to know some basic information about you, not asking her to tell me your secret.
-But I think you don't like black clothes, I've seen the first of yours on that day.
-Hou Lei, yup, I don't like black clothes, but if you like black dresses, I'll wear black clothes with you. In this palace, people like colorful clothes, if you're different from them, I'll be your side, I'll the same with you. – He gently told her.
-Even that, you and I can't just wear black clothes.
-That's right, but I will wear them when I am with you. – He held her hands.
-Okay, so you are trying to win my heat? If you win, you'll soon be bored!
-No, I said to you, I'm not one of the men your father talked about, you'll see.
-I'll wait to see. Would you like some tea?
-Of course, I'm waiting for it from the beginning. – He laughed.
The next day, the Emperor called Tian Liam to meet him in private.
-Tian Liam, did you hear anything about the missings of things and the mysteriously lost of some people in the royal city recently?
-I heard some. But the information was not much to know clearly.
-Do you have any idea about that? – The Emperor continued.
-I think we should carry out an investigation but in private, it will make the citizen worried if we make a big investigative team.
-You're right! – The Emperor nodded. – Although we had our sentries to deal with many people to keep this news in secret, I don't think we can keep it hidden for a long time. I think that those guys who stole things are very strong and dangerous. They also kidnapped people.
-I know. That will be a big issue in the royal city if we don't take action soon.
-So Tian Liam, as we would like to keep the secret, I want you to go to investigate this issue, without any soldiers. – The Emperor requested. – You are my best choice now, you are the best of martial arts in the ones I can believe. And you're also smart enough to have a good plan, the experience in many cases you defined before can be necessary for this case.
-I know how important it is, Father, I'll do my best!
-So I feel more secure. – He nodded. – You must start as soon as possible.
-I will prepare and go out of the palace right this night!
At night, the Prince went out of the Palace on a horse. He rode the horse to the countryside of the royal city where the strange things happened. He got down of the horse and hid behind a big tree to watch around. After a while, he saw four men walking across the small street, they were holding something like the tools to open the door without a key. They tried to open a wealthy house in the village. Tian Liam got out of his hiding place and shouted:
-How dare you to steal things in the royal city?
-Who are you? – One of them asked. – How dare you to corrupt our business?
They run forward his place and fought with him. He was good at martial arts, but those guys were too strong, stronger than normal people. He could not stab the sword at them. They fought for a while, Tian Liam could handle them but he could not make them hurt.
-You're good, my boy! – One of them said. – But not strong enough!
-I won't let you go! – He yelled.
But he hit on Tian Liam's chest and made him fall down. They wanted to hit him more, but there was a voice shouting from far away:
-They are there, the soldiers, please catch them!
-There are many soldiers, leave now! – The biggest guy said.
They left Tian Liam on the ground and ran for another direction opposite with the voice. Tian Liam tried to look up to see who helped him, and he realized that was Hou Lei. She ran to his place and helped him up.

-Hou Lei, how can you find me at here?
-It's not the problem now, go with me! – She helped him to get up.
They went to a motel near that place, rented a room, Hou Lei led him into the room. She let him laid on the bed and got a chair next to the bed. She brought out a tablet of medicine.
-Let take this, it will make you feel better and make your hurt decrease.
-Thank you! – He took the medicine and rapidly fell into sleep.
She got the blanket to cover his body and then slept beside him on the chair. Before finding him, in the afternoon, Hou Lei wanted to greet the Emperor, but she heard the conversation between Tian Liam and the Emperor instead. As she followed the news these days, she guessed that the strange men stole the things and kidnapped the people might be Er people. Only them had the strength to break down the doors and took people with them without any effort. She had followed Tian Liam in the evening, she wanted to join with him because she thought the Er people would recognize her and made her plan corrupted. She wanted to help Tian Liam captured them to prevent them from getting the information about her to Er Wang. Tian Liam rode the horse to pass through the main door of the Palace, from a place near there, she prepared to fly over the wall to get out of the Palace too. She had watched him fighting with the men, but she did not want to join, she thought he could handle with them. Until he got hit, she shouted about the soldiers to help him.
The next morning, Hou Lei got up early. She went down the motel and asked for some food. She also prepared a basin with a towel for Tian Liam to wash his face. She got closer to the bed and looked at him, he was still sleeping. His injury was healed now by her medicine, she gently touched his face and got the blanket to cover his body. He woke up and saw the food was ready for him, she had left for not making him have doubts about her more. She left a paper on the table with some herbs.
-Was that Hou Lei with me last night? – He asked himself. – I can feel her hand touch my face.
